Below you find some references in BiBTeX format.

A range of approaches to deal with partial functions are
reviewed in [CJ91] and [MR91]. A recent and comprehensive
description of LPF (Logic of Partial Functions) is given
in [JM94]. The oldest reference is probably [Kle52].

Best regards,

Kees Middelburg
